This probably has something to do with that internal poll recently that had Romney within 2% in PA. His campaign is apparently getting some feedback that PA is in play, and they’d better act. Expect to see some big ad buys in the Philly market (which will cover Bucks, Delaware, and the other purplish suburban counties) about three weeks before Election Day.

(It's time to make Obama a minor footnote in the pages of history)

Campaign events this weekend in Iowa, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, new Hampshire and Colorado. Sounds like our team is playing on the blue end of the field. Actions speak louder than media polls.

I remember last time when palin we heading to events in North Carolina and Indiana in the last month. At the time I could not fathom we would lose either stronghold. Again, the polling shows them where they should spend their time and resources. Right. Is we are investing limited time in blue leaning states. That tells me where things are.

Romney should stay in Virginia, Florida and Ohio ONLY!!! He needs to go to states he has a better chance in. Why he is trying for Pennsylvania is beyond me. He does not need Pennsylvania. He needs those 3 that I mentioned.

PA has a healthy Catholic population. Romney/Ryan need to appeal to the Commonwealth’s founding as one rooted in religious freedom and tie Obamacare’s contraception mandate to the kind of religious oppression William Penn fled.

Pennsylvania voted for Reagan twice. Voted for Bush once (did not vote to reelect). Voted against Dole, George W. McCain and MAYBE Romney. It appears that Pennsylvania wants a President like Reagan and the Bush Father they at first elected before he raised taxes after saying he wouldn’t. Every election since, they did not vote for the “liberal Republican” or “Compassionate Conservative” types. They want the true blue conservatives and no fake ones.

I hope Romney reminds everyone about what Obama has done to the coal industry. Nailing Obama with these facts at the debate and in commercials should help him in states like PA.

BTW, Mr. Romney, PLEASE KNOCK OFF THE CONCILIATORY BULL SH*T! Obama is not a nice guy, he's a destroyer of our nation. F*ck the few that get their feelings hurt when you speak the truth about this POS.

Why politicians think we want to hear them say nice little warm fuzzies about the other side is beyond me.

This probably has something to do with that internal poll recently that had Romney within 2% in PA.

He HAS to be. I live in a first ring Philadelphia suburb in Montgomery county PA. In recent years the limosine liberals have infiltrated our township. The last few elections has shown a pretty even split of Dem/Rep bumper stickers and yard signs. This time around initially the anti-Obama signs had a huge lead over the Obama/Romney signs. But in the last few days, Romney signs have taken over. I can only think of one car that has an Obama sticker - there are NO Obama yard signs. Even my Liberal Jewish neighbor is voting Romney - has never voted for a Republican for president ever.

No large crowds for Obama, compared to 2008, almost zero bumper stickers for Obama across the entire country, compared to 2008!!! Folks, that is the “real” polls!!! Romney/Ryan will win Pennsylvania and will win the POTUS race in a landslide victory. We just need to get all of our troops to the polls across the entire nation, and “ Hate America” Obama & the “Traitor” Democrat party will be defeated beyond expectations!!! A repeat of 2010, only of greater magnitude!!!

Just completely ignore the mainstream media. They all speak with forked tongue!!!

The Jersey border is where the majority of people live. The problem with Coal has been replaced by the great fracking which in Western Pennsylvania and some places in central Pennsylvania has become very profitable. I don’t know if they will turn out to be a wash.
